Here's a Newfie joke with a different twist, supposedly true: This is a transcript of an actual radio conversation between a US Naval ship and Canadian authorities off the coast of Newfoundland. US SHIP: Please divert your course 0.5 degrees to the South to avoid a collision. CANADIAN REPLY: Recommend you divert YOUR course 15 degrees to the South to avoid a collision. US SHIP: This is the Captain of the US Navy Ship. I say again, divert YOUR course. CANADIAN REPLY: No, I say again, divert YOUR course! US SHIP: THIS IS THE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS MISSOURI. WE ARE A LARGE WARSHIP OF THE US NAVY. DIVERT YOUR COURSE NOW OR WE WILL TAKE APPROPRIATE AND DRASTIC MEASURES!!!! CANADIAN REPLY: This is a lighthouse. Your call.
